Reviews for Stevenson Transfer

Dave did an excellent job of documenting our belongings and was very dependable. The company was very professional. The only mishap was our broken brass lamp. Overall it was a good experience.

We are "seasoned" movers, and this company and crew are the most reliable, professional, and personable we have ever encountered.

I had a great experience with Stevenson Transfer for my move from Chicago to Indy! Joe and crew made my move as stress-free as possible. They did an amazing job loading up and unloading with speed, care, professionalism, and attention to detail. They even were able to push up the delivery schedule a day early to avoid inclement weather. An all around job well done and much appreciated! I will definitely recommend them to others.

Stevenson Mayflower is a family franchise I have had two great experiences with: A household move from Chicago to Colorado and the recent piano move from Omaha to Chicago. They are the first I call if I need mover services in the Midwest. They are very helpful, responsible and responsive.

The movers were very organized, efficient, careful with my belongings, and friendly. Everything was seamless from the original load up through the final drop off.

I have nothing but positive things to say about my entire experience working with Mayflower. From the initial communication to the final destination move-in, everything was so professional and they completely took all the stress out of my out of state move! It was a huge relief, everything was packed professionally, and all of my furniture arrived in perfect condition. Could not have asked for better service, I will definitely use Mayflower again if/when I move!

This is the third time we have had to use Stevenson Transfer’s services & would not use anyone else. They are always professional and communicate with you every step of the way. Movers are also very personable and hard-working. We would not trust anyone else with our belongings.

I contracted directly with Stephenson Transfer of Ottowa, IL and I was totally satisfied with their performance. They were very professional and careful with my belongings. I valued being able to get a guaranteed delivery date, and not to have my items moved around in transit.

Vicki /Wayne

We were very pleased with the timing of our move. They came to load when they said they would and the same with unloading

Stevenson transfer handled all our questions promptly, and personally saw to listing all items in a professional manner. We had a lot of help on moving day.
To my dismay, the box with bills and medical records was loaded without my seeing it, as I had to run to doctor for blood work, and I haven't seen it since I packed it back in September.
The unloading process took place with only two helpers and Joe. My husband helped to expedite he process. I had to leave for a half hour, and again, the medical records/ bills was not seen.
Overall, the experience was very easy and stress free. Thanks to all who had a hand in moving us across the country.

The service was great! They took preventative measures to ensure items were not able to break.

The girls in the office Lorna and Angie were very helpful. They helped make the process less stressful. The warehouse help helped provide needed materials. Mike Stevenson did a great job helping inventory household items and providing cost estimates. Kevin the truck driver was very efficient and prompt. He did his job in a very professional manner.

Sandra

Was very satisfied with the workers as they helped me a lot in the final packing. Also, they were right on the arrival time at my new home and again, the workers were very polite and helpful. Thanks to the folks I never met, but talked with on the phone - resulting in a positive experience for my first "big" move and at the age of 77, it was sometimes overwhelming; I'm still unpacking, but going at a more leisurely pace. Thank you, Stevenson Transfer of Ottawa IL!

from the 1st day i contacted stevenson/mayflower about our move, they made us feel so at ease. they made us feel like they themselves were moving to another state. all the way to our new home they stayed in contact with us, asking if we needed anything or assistance. over all very satisfied with everything.

Throughout the entire process the Stevenson folks were on time,communicated with us in a professional manner and good natured. Theres is a hard job that was executed perfectly. It's obvious that they have procedures and policies in place to support their workforce as well as the customer.At the same time the team was not a slave to procedures and we're able to think on their feet when they encountered problems. Their team leader,Kevin encouraged his team to maintain a good pace while allowing us all to have a bit of fun and crack a few jokes.His organizational skills were outstanding, he is clearly an experienced and flexible leader. I wish I'd had bosses as professional as he was during my corporate career.

Stevenson Transfer treated us like family from the initial planning stage through the unload process. They provided excellent advice and service throughout the process.

MIKE STEVENSON UNDERESTAMATED HOW MUCH STUFF WE HAD. It load weighed much more that what he estimated, but we were not charged what we should have paid. He should have brought a larger truck as not all of are stuff didn't get on.

Move went extremely well. Only disappointment was local movers hired to unload. Mayflower movers and packers were courteous and professional.

Kelly /Kevin

From start to finish, the process was smooth and easy. Everyone was great to work with!

In a word, fantastic! The team at Stevenson transfer did a simply phenomenal job. Even though I've still a bit of unpacking to do, I'm confident that I'll find nothing that wasn't carefully prepared in the wrapping process. I would, without ANY reservation whatsoever, recommend Stevenson again. They're simply the best!

Great working with Stevenson Transfer and Mayflower. No surprises, very easy to obtain a binding quote and staff was great to work with all the way through delivery

I've moved 5 times in 3 years and after discovering Mayflower, I wouldn't use another company. Fair pricing, outstanding professionalism and customer service, and excellent care and consideration of my belongings, schedule, and requests. Highly recommended!

Stevenson Transport was excellent! The entire team from the office staff to Joe and the other packers and moving men provided phenomenal service from beginning to end.

Overall it was good but an entire block of our belongings ere left on the truck and we still don't have them (1 month after move) and don't know when we will get them.

Lisa

The guys who loaded were pretty slow. But the guys in nYC who unloaded really hustled and were done very quickly. Excellent communication with the office. No real complaints. So much better than my previous move with a different company.

Brian /Cara

June 23, 2017

We would absolutely recommend Stevenson Transfer. They had trouble getting help in our new location, which was unfortunate, but I'm not sure if that's a Mayflower issue.

Jean

Every single person I interacted with at Stevenson/Mayflower Movers was professional, friendly, courteous, and gave me confidence that they knew their jobs well. Both move events (pick-up and drop-off) were exactly on-time. The movers were careful, asked questions when needed, and listened well. The move coordinators (prior to the move) were extremely professional and knowledgeable about all aspects of the move. The only thing I can say that is less than positive is that the cost of the move was much higher (+/-$2000)than other estimates I received. I chose Stevenson because of all three of the companies that estimated my move, Stevenson seemed to be the only company that knew the law, knew what needed to happen when, and that gave me a sense of confidence in their abilities.

The Stevenson team from Ottawa led by Kevin at my home in Il were Fabulous! Tape, boxes , what ever We needed they were there. The unloaded in Tn went as smooth. Kevin gave a delivery time and he was there right on the money. Hope we never move again, but if we do we will call Mayflower!

Very helpful before and during move. Dealt with several people in office,-all good interactions. Our driver, Joe, was great in managing all aspects of packing,loading and unloading. He was a good manager of his crew.

Steve /Natalie

April 13, 2017

There were some tiny items of ours that got wrapped in paper that was on the top as if it was filler paper.....we probably ended up losing 3 or 4 items because of this. Once we realized what the packers did, we checked every single piece of paper which really was time consuming considering they could have wrapped the small items in a better way.
We had 3 glass containers filled with sand from different beaches in the US. One container was packed perfectly with the sand intact. The other 2 were not....the sand was dumped out into trash bags and then packed in a separate box. When we first opened the empty glass containers, we had no idea what happened to the contents. It was a waste of boxes as well as appearing our items were discarded.

Stefanie

I would highly recommend Dave who was our packer and driver. He was absolutely the best. Lorna in the office was spectacular as well.
Thank you for the awesome experience,

Movers were very professional and courteous. It was a difficult Chicago p/u and move because of space and parking. They did a great job.

Angie

Overall experience was excellent, good and fast response from the offices. Follow up on questions was timely and professional. Moving crew was respectful, fast, hard working, polite and professional. Arrival dates and times were the coordinated ones.

We had a great experience from start to finish. From the in-home estimate to the communication beforehand, everything was seamless. Our driver Joe was thoughtful and cautious to not damage any of our items or the apartment we moved out of and the house we moved into. Our stuff arrived very quickly from Chicago to Denver and nothing was damaged or missing.

Pamela

I think everything went really well. Everyone was easily reachable for questions and explained each part of the process thoroughly.
